In this episode, I dive deep into why I no longer use the siphon coffee maker, exploring the balance between effort and reward in coffee brewing methods. I share my personal journey of collecting various coffee gear and chasing the "holy grail" of coffee makers, only to realize that sometimes simpler methods like the V60 provide better value for your time and effort. Listeners will learn valuable insights about coffee brewing equipment choices and why the most elaborate or scientific-looking methods aren't always the best for daily coffee enjoyment.

While I acknowledge the scientific appeal and spectacle of the siphon brewer, I explain why I eventually gave mine away. Through my experience, I discuss how we develop coffee brewing habits and why certain brewing methods, despite their initial appeal, may not stand the test of time in our daily routines. This episode provides crucial perspective for coffee enthusiasts considering expensive or time-consuming brewing methods.
